| | | Step back 1ft, slant your camera down more, and go f/4 @ ISO 200 (since you are in day light, it'll still be easily hand held). my 2c.

| | | Ooh, I definitely like this one better. Much better. I do agree with Buffalonian though. Stepping back and steepening your angle of attack slightly will yield a very nice result. Slowing down to 200 will work wonders for noise. with f/4 it should be quite sharp and DoF just perfect for the shot...subjectively speaking of course. Great job!

I shoot around f/2 - 2.8 for close-ups and f/4 for specific DoF attempts like this one. But you get my point. I think that night photography has really made me know my equipment soooo much better. You become a manual focus and light nazi, after doing it for a while.

| | | Thanks for the tips you two. I'll make you proud in the third inning. In light of the tips, I'm imagining it now with a hint more DoF and about 30 degrees more in the slant department, and it looks sexy. As for the ISO, let's just say I sadly forgot about it even though I've been very adamant about using the lowest ISO possible... until yesterday, where I magically forgot it existed. (Note to self: remember to not forget to remember to check your ISO.) THANKEE

That happens to everyone. I have missed (or botched) brilliant photo opportunities when it occurs to me moments later or in post-processing that my ISO was wayyyy to high. Doh! Try to get yourself into a rhythm. Start with a checklist you run through before every photo. In no time the physical checklist is gone and you naturally check for those critical settings instinctively. Mistakes will still happen but you'll be more disciplined.

| | | When I got my first DSLR I spent a few months running around with my ISO at 1600 without even realizing it. >.< I've found that 400 is usually a good "set it and forget it" level, it works for most situations.
